Gold's natural properties are every bit as surprising as the powers attributed to the mineral, which is why gold could engender the brutal but extraordinarily productive encounter of the peoples who built the Americas of today. The Indians, Africans, Europeans, and Metis all contributed - through the alchemy of time and passion - to forging the face of the nations and the landscapes of the vast territory of the Americas. From pre-Hispanic treasures to technological marvels of the twenty-first century, the ways in which gold has been used are as limitless as the human imagination. Let yourself succumb to gold fever and discover the Americas as you have never before seen them. The book include a preface by Dany Laferriere; texts by anthropologists Jacques-M. Chevalier, Paul-Christiaan Klieger, Zelie Larose-Chevalier, Jose Lopez-Arellano, and Michael Taussig; texts by archaeologists Claude Chapdelaine, Yves Chretien, Helene Cote, Richard Fiset, Michael Gates, Roberto Lleras, Louise-Iseult Paradis, Gilles Samson, and Sanitago Uceda-Castillo; texts by historians Helene Daneau, Miguel Luque Talavan, and Daviken Studnicki-Gizbert; texts by arts historians Letizia Arbeteta-Mira, Clara-Isabel Botero, Paz Cabello-Carro, Paloma Carcedo de Mufarech, and Winifred Glover; a text by gold market analyst Jean-Bernard Guyon; and texts by geologists Benoit Dube, Jayanta Guha, Michel Guiraud, and Jean-Marc Lulin.
